Montecristo No.4 - 25 cigars

Product Review (submitted on May 4, 2021):

I got a box of these recently, my first CT order. The box was dated a year earlier, and arrived in perfect condition. Thanks, CT! After a month resting in my humidor, I smoked two of them over the past few days, with consistent notes. The cigars drew easily from start to finish, with a slow, even burn. The taste was creamy and smooth, with an aroma reminiscent of new-mown hay. In the first third, a high palate spiciness built, until it coated my palate in the second third. With one of the cigars, a remarkable sweetness emerged. I imagine this nuance will grow with age. Both were delicious, and I stretched them out to 40 minutes with no relighting. The smooth aftertaste lingered a couple of hours. Lovely 30-40 minute cigars, aperitifs.
